Abstract excerpt
On the Streptococcus equisimilis H46A chromosome, the divergent coding sequences of the genes for the plasminogen activator streptokinase (skc) and a leucine-rich protein (lrp), the function of which is unknown, are separated by a 328 bp intrinsically bent DNA region rich in AT tracts. To begin to understand the expression control of these two genes, we mapped their transcriptional initiation sites by S1 nuclease...
